Requirement for corrosion protective coatings:
Uniform thickness
Absence of pin-holes
Low porosity
Low diffusion across grain boundaries
43. 43
Coating must be dense with minimal distance between grain boundaries
The best possible Diffusion Barriers are Amorphous!
Microstructure requirements:
44. 44
Amorphous films have notypical structural defectsof the crystalline state (dislocations and grain boundaries)
